Cape Breton's Magazine

woman who--she's now in her 90's, I think --who got the group together (for Simonne Voyer). But it would have been more vague, I think I hope (our talk) was useful. I'm afraid sometimes I'm not down-to-earth enough, perhaps, for the kind of thing you'd like to do in the magazine. And I'm really some? one that's coming back, interested in some? thing that's me, but that I didn't live. I'm interested because I know that that's part of me, even though I didn't live it. And it's probably, too, it's probably searching--it's kind of a ridiculous search for an identity which probably can never be regained. It's almost a searching for some kind of--you know, it's a kind of a roman? tic search, sure, I bet it's that, too. I'm sure if I did an analysis of why I did that, there'd be all kind of things like that that would come out. Why should I want to look at that? You know. 1.
